Twitter Buys Summify, Should Rid Our Timelines of Stuff We Don't Care About

Future iterations of Twitter will be a lot more streamlined given the microblogging platform’s purchase of Vancouver-based Summify, announced yesterday. The little known start-up platform specializes in analyzing the reading habits of its users and their friends via social networks in order to more carefully curate what news makes its way to you.

The expected integration into Twitter is an exciting prospect, especially for those looking to get rid of all mentions of the Kardashians and similarly trivial banalities from our timelines, and therefore our consciousness.
